First, an HR screening. Then a technical interview with the lead. After that, the final interview with the VP or Head of Department. Then you finally get an offer. Sometimes it takes longer to get called for the next interview round because there are many candidates and time difference.

I went through 3 interview rounds with several senior managers and executives. They said I was in the final stage but then ghosted me. I reached out to HR and each interviewer, but got no response. Don't waste your time here.

My hiring journey at Payactiv (SDS-IT) took about 2-3 weeks and was mostly smooth, but the HR side had some issues. It took about a week to get my appointment letter after the offer, and getting my company laptop needed a few trips, finally getting it on day two. I also had to visit the HR office multiple times for the new employee hamper, getting it on day 15. Clearer communication and smoother processes would really help with onboarding.
